Thanks for the information ... I still didn't get the challenger but tried the first suggestion on the battle thread about scarves. Oh well.. maybe another time.

Hope all bears doing alright. Sorry not around as much as I'd like but just a little busy....all doing well here.

Sorry that you didn't get the challenger. Glad that all is OK with you.

Hope all OK with you also ! Good to hear from you. :)

Glorious warm / hot sunny summer days. I couldn't be anything than great.

Oh... I'm sooooo jealous! We have had a few warm (70F) days but also a LOT of freezing days. Now around 40-50F most days. Nothing blooming, dull and rainy mainly. Good news is my son has the possibility of 3 jobs should hear something by Friday and I'm hoping for the one closest so crossing fingers and toes.

.. send some of that weather here! begs

: I got the challenger by going to Quentins quest shop and purchasing everything that had Ghost in it and he finally challenged me when I purchased the painted ghost plushie, but I had also purchased every other ghost item up to that point. I like the Ghost Stockings...but I'm not much of a ghost creature. Anyway, Quentin is a 450 HP combatant and drops something with every loss up to at least 20. Now I got to figure out what to do with 7 Graveyard Antlephore Plushies and 9 Graveyard Cadogre Plushies.

: You weren't babbling, I like what you had to say about chickens! (mmm...chickens....eggs....mmmm) Oh! And Thank you girls. I make cute babies. I've got 14 now. 15 if you count Weldon. (he's my biggest baby!)They are a paw full, but I don't mind one bit. I'll try to keep you all updated from time to time.

You forget, I was there the day you were born....Little One.

Oh, no Welly, you forget I was there too....(giggle

Good luck to your son, I hope he gets the job he wants. I thought he was going to find a job where he could travel as well.

I just bought the 5 items

Werewolf Costumed Ghost Nuclear Ghost Creepy Bride Costumed Ghost Painter Ghost Plushie

and got him on the 5th. Clown Costumed Ghost

: Are you getting any time out in the bay fishing this time of year? I love hearing about your fishing expeditions.

We are getting a Minn Kota fixed to to boat at the moment. Not really sure what it does but it allows you to stay in one spot without putting down an anchor. So hope we will get fishing when that is done.

, he was, but there isn't much call for a traveling accountant , also some aren't too fond of him taking off to backpack for a year maybe afraid he'll do it again in a few years. That Minn Kota sounds interesting! Hope it works well.

, I'll try to save up more forum points then. I bought all the scarves and that wasn't helpful. I'm not sure I told you congratulations on those sweet babies!

Hey , hope all well with you. How's your daughter?

He's very lucky to be able to do what he does. Work, save, travel, spend. Then back home to start again.

, I felt very luck also to meet him in 3 places for a short time. I'm actually hoping he'll plan again in a few years. Of course only stayed 3-4 days unlike your trip but was still fun!

I'm sending links to more places for him to visit as hints laughs

Are you planning another vacation?

Not me. Hubby is meeting up with a family member and doing a 6 week driving tour around Great Britain. Since my fall I hate driving and with the dog and her cancer I don't want to leave her in someones care, and 6 weeks is a long time to expect someone to house and dog sit.

Wow, congrats on the hug!

,, 6 weeks would be a very long time for me also... don't think I'd want to be gone that long either. Had some cancer removed from my pup.. luckily got it all. How is yours doing?

She is going good. Gets tired easily (could be old age) and pants a lot (could be the heat). So if they are side effects from the chemo then that is not bad. Nice that they were able to get it all from your dog.

Mine was lucky .. I did Xrays just to make sure and am hoping no further return later on. Glad yours is doing well. Dogs tolerate chemo better then people. My daughter had a dog had chemo twice, 4 years apart and did well. The poor pups finally died probably of old age but lived a long time. Hope you have the same good luck!

I know that we have done the best by her and in May (believe it or not .... time goes so fast) it will be 12 months.

Thank you. 'Course this means my husband got 2 physical hugs and internally I'm just screaming. This is the third of my heroes he's met in person. XD But it's a cool thing for him. He's on the phone with a mortgage refinance guy RIGHT NOW recounting the story. Gushing like a girl. It amuses me greatly. I will never let him live it down. grin

LOL! Blackmail material forever!
